that depends on who you ask. >> what happened in benghazi was in fact initially a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in cairo, almost a copycat of the demonstrations against our facility in cairo which were prompted of course by the video. >> most people don't bring rocket propelled grenades and heavy weapons to a demonstration. that was an act of terror. for anyone to disagree with that fundamental fact, i think is really ignoring the facts. >> libya's president says foreign extremists planned the attack but in egypt officials say some protesters actually got paid to participate. of course events overseas have changed the dialog when it comes to the election here at home. until now mitt romney's message was centered on the economy and with obama leading in the polls republicans have seized on the embassy crisis to attack the president's leadership. >> all of us are watching events closely. we know who america is dealing with in knees attacks. they are extremists who operate by violence and intimidation and the leasty equivocation or mixed signal only makes t

>>> congressional republicans are demander more information about the attack in benghazi that killed ambassador christopher stevens and aides. joining us now to talk about the investigation is former fine assistant director and cnn contributor fom fuentes. tom, i want to read you just part of this letter. part of it says "decades after al qaeda attacked our embassies in east africa which catalyzed a series of events which led to the attacks on 9/11, it appears they executed a highly coordinated and well-planned attack against us again. clearly the threat from al qaeda and affiliated groups has metastasized, yet we do not appear to be learning from the past." now, you were at the fbi in 1998. what do you make of that? are we not learning the lesson from the past? >> frankly i think that's ridiculous. we've learned a lot from those lessons. but there's a much different situation here in libya than there was in kenya and tanzania in 1998. >> how so? >> you don't have a developed government for one thing. >> libyan government. >> the libyan government that doesn't have the robust law enf

for example, after the attack on the benghazi consulate that the right thing to do is you say nothing because when an american ambassador is killed, that probably indicates that some serious mistake happened. that's a good moment to say nothing and to wait for facts to emerge. this president has a record that is difficult to defend in a lot of respects. job creation, bad, economic growth, too slow. and his foreign policy initiative looks like it is going up in flames. that's the place where mitt romney should go. and of course president obama and his team wake up every morning and say how can we make today be about anything other than that? unfortunately so far they're doing pretty well. >> you know, i think this president has a tremendous record to go out there and tell the american people. stabilizing the economy, 30 months of consecutive job growth, bin laden dead, gadhafi gone, al qaeda weakened. look, we shouldn't run this election on the republican terms. nor should president obama have to respond every time mitt romney makes a mistake and try to prop him up. mitt romney has bee
